Although there is a mountain of evidence and plenty of victims in this case, a guilty plea would save a lot of time and money for the government, according to Kirshner. But still, she said, assistant U.S. Attorney Marc Litt will want to "know the method of the crime, how it went undetected, where the money went, where it's hidden, if any, and who's involved...
...state or municipality programs, while other funds will flow directly to individuals, families, and businesses in the form of tax cuts and credits. But Wolf—who said that she is anxious about funding for essential services like education and healthcare—said that she viewed this method of funding as “fragmented.” “It’s like putting together a jigsaw puzzle, but we don’t know what the end looks like,” Wolf said. In December, Patrick established 10 task forces to prepare Massachusetts...
...group of researchers at Harvard and Massachusetts General Hospital have published findings on a new, more accurate method to predict stroke risk through a statistical model that screens for thousands of potentially stroke-causing genes. The model—called a Bayesian network—differs from existing methods that examine only the effect of a single factor, instead allowing researchers to study the interaction of multiple genes. The study, released last month, found the formula could predict a person’s risk for the most common stroke in the U.S. with 86 percent accuracy—which...
...rate of $100 billion a month and begins to slow to much more modest levels as the number of firms that need big bailouts decreases, it means that the period of huge catastrophes has ended and that normal credit availability from the Fed has returned as the major method for feeding the credit markets...
...funding is to find new treatments that will help patients live longer and better,” he said. Harlow, who was been studying melanoma for about three years, is working to find an indirect way to treat this cancer by targeting genes that support harmful mutations, a method originally proposed in 2005 by Medical School Professor William G. Kaelin, Jr. Harlow is focusing on genes supporting MITF—a gene critical to melanoma growth—and hopes to find a way to control the gene in order to stunt tumor growth. In collaboration with David E. Fisher...
